PREFACE TO PART II Family PERIDINIACEAE (SchUtt) emend Lindemann In this second part of The Dinophyceae of the Indian Seas, species under them of the Family Peridiniaceae from the Indian Ocean region are described, comprising the genera Diplopsalis Bergh, Peridiniopsis Lemmermann, Preperidinium Mangin, Diplopeltopsis Pavillard, Diplopsalopsis Meunier and Peridinium Ehrenberg. The account deals with the original work of the author and those of earlier workers reproduced here duly acknowledged. One hundred marine species and eighteen fresh, water forms from the region are dealt with ; seven insufficiently known are mentioned. A list of species exclusively (so far) recorded from other seas and oceans is given. Over 50% of known Peridiniaceae occur in the Indian Ocean waters. The authoristhankful to his colleagues Mr. C. P. Gopinalhan and Mr. C. Thankappan Pillai for invaluable help with figures and typing of the MSS and Mr. K. Rengarajan for verification i to Dr. M. Vanuucci, UNESCO Curator at the Indian Ocean Biological Centre, IIOE, for translation of Spanish literature; and Dr. S. Jones, President of the Marine Biological Association of India for help with the publication of this series of studies. The author owns full responsibility for defective proof­ reading which has necessitated an errata list and he hopes that this will not detract the value of the work to users. 52. CHOOLAI HIGH ROAD R.

An apex present or absent. Girdle circular or spiralled, right-handed (dextral) or left-handed (sinistral). Theca thin in the younger stages, later becomes thick and strong; consists of variously shaped plates. Tabulation variable, malformation cdramoft. Difficult to set up valid plate patterns for mein- bers of the family. Mostly there are 6 to 7 precingulars, 5 to 6 post- cingulars and two antapical plates which may be fused in Diplosalis. Tabu­ lation of epitheca more variable than that of hypotheca. Surface of theca sculptured with areoles, papillae, spines, lists or pores; seldom smooth. Plasma of marine species at times coloured. Stigma present or absent; when present sometimes pale; rarely present in freshwater species. Pusules occur in marine species. Chromatophores greenish yellow or brown, present often in large numbers, at times with pyreiioids. Starch, fatty substances &fid rods (rhabdosomes) constitute inclusions. Nucleus round or elon­ gated. Cells rarely form colony. Cysts formed after casting off of theca. Not much known about reproduction. Size varies froni 18 to 300 /A. In fresh, brackish and marine habitats. The plate-pattern on the cells is an important taxonomic character for diagnosis of genera and species. The plates composing the body of the cell are arranged in rows parallel to the girdle for convenience in designation. The terminology of Kofoid (1909 a) is widely accepted for this purpose. On the epitheca, the plates around the apex are called the apicah. Anterior to and touching the girdle is a row of plates, the precingular series. Another group in contact with the apex, is the apical series. Between these two plates may be found interpolated plates called anterior intercalaries. The girdle also is made up of a series of plates not well known and hence usually omitted in the formulae. On the hypotheca, bordering the girdle, is a row of plates known as postcingular series. Another series, which touches the antapex is termed antapical plates. Between these and postcingulars, there may be interpolated the posterior intercalaries. Kofoid (/. c.) uses prime signs to designate the plates which is adopted by most workers. Graham (1942) has proposed use of letters to denote them. The two are given below:— Plates Kofoiii Graham Apical platelet pl Apical plate V, 2' ..A' ap Anterior intercalary a a Precingular 1", 2" 7" pr Girdle g Postcingular r",...2"'...5"' po Posterior intercalary posterior intercalary p Antapical 1"", 2"", ... ant Sulcal s e. g. The plate formula for Perid'nium Ehrenberg would be: Lebour: 4' 3a 7" 5'" 2"" Sfchiller: 4' 2-3a 7" 5'" 2"" Graham: 2-5ap; 0-8a; 6-7pr; 3-6g; 5-6s, 5-6po; Op, 2ant. The additional details in Graham's formula is due to knowledge accrued since Schiller. As most of the workers adopt Kofoid's signs, the same is employed here to help easy reference. Lindemann (1928) merged some of the genera of earlier authors into Diplosalis and Schiller (1937) merged some into Glenodinium and some into Peridinium. Investigations since 1937 tend to show that several of the genera merged by these authors can be accorded independent status (Loeblich et al 1966). Thus nine genera are recognized in the family Peri- diniaceae distinguished by the following characteristics. Diplopsalis Bergh, 1881 Cells lens-shaped with a left long list fairly conspicuous. Plate formula 3' la 6" 5'" 1"". The plate here called the anterioi- intercala­ ry may be displaced apical. Apical pore present. Marine and in relict seas. Peridiniopsis Lemmerman, 1904 Cell with plate formula: 3'lo 6" 5'" 2"". Round conical or lenti­ cular. Like D plopsalis but with two antapicals. The large anterior inter­ calary may, however, be displaced apical. Diplopelta Jorgensen, 1912 Two antapicals, second small anterior intercalary plate. Formula: 3' 2a 6" 5'" 2"". Diphpehopsis Pavillard, 1913 Cells lens-shaped. Plate formula: 3' 2a 7" 5'" 1"" or the large intercalary apical, 7 precingulars and 1 antapical; otherwise like Diplopelta. Entzia Lebour, 1922 Plate formula : 4' l-2a 7" 5'" 1"". Apical pore present. Differs from Peridinium subgenus Archaeperidinium in having only one antapical plate and sometimes, only on? antsrior intercalary. Displopsalopsis Meunier, 1909 Cells lens-shaped. Plate formula: 3' 2a 7" 5'" 2"" or 4" \a 7" 5'" 2"". Like Diplopeltopsis but with 2 antapicals. Heterocapsa Stein, 1883 Cells more or less spindle-shaped. One antapical drawn out into a horn. Plate formula: 4ap2a6 for 5 pst op 2 at (4' 2a 6' 3'" 2"".) Peridinium Ehrenberg, 1832 Shape variable, round ellipsoidal or spindle-shaped, and dorsiven- traliy compressed. 2-5', O-83, 6-7" (3-6 ? g), 5 (-6)'" op 2"". Preperidinium Mangin, 1913 Ellipsoidal or spherical cells Tabulation: 4' la 7" 5'" 1"" or 4' la 5-6" 5'" 1"". One of the apical plates very much to the left.

  • Molecular Data and the Evolutionary History of Dinoflagellates by Juan Fernando Saldarriaga Echavarria Diplom, Ruprecht-Karls-Un
    Molecular data and the evolutionary history of dinoflagellates by Juan Fernando Saldarriaga Echavarria Diplom, Ruprecht-Karls-Universitat Heidelberg, 1993 A THESIS SUBMITTED IN PARTIAL FULFILMENT OF THE REQUIREMENTS FOR THE DEGREE OF DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY in THE FACULTY OF GRADUATE STUDIES Department of Botany We accept this thesis as conforming to the required standard THE UNIVERSITY OF BRITISH COLUMBIA November 2003 © Juan Fernando Saldarriaga Echavarria, 2003 ABSTRACT New sequences of ribosomal and protein genes were combined with available morphological and paleontological data to produce a phylogenetic framework for dinoflagellates. The evolutionary history of some of the major morphological features of the group was then investigated in the light of that framework. Phylogenetic trees of dinoflagellates based on the small subunit ribosomal RNA gene (SSU) are generally poorly resolved but include many well- supported clades, and while combined analyses of SSU and LSU (large subunit ribosomal RNA) improve the support for several nodes, they are still generally unsatisfactory. Protein-gene based trees lack the degree of species representation necessary for meaningful in-group phylogenetic analyses, but do provide important insights to the phylogenetic position of dinoflagellates as a whole and on the identity of their close relatives. Molecular data agree with paleontology in suggesting an early evolutionary radiation of the group, but whereas paleontological data include only taxa with fossilizable cysts, the new data examined here establish that this radiation event included all dinokaryotic lineages, including athecate forms. Plastids were lost and replaced many times in dinoflagellates, a situation entirely unique for this group. Histones could well have been lost earlier in the lineage than previously assumed.

  • Alan Martienssen & Zebedee
    Hall of Fame - Alan Martienssen by Graham Cox Alan Martienssen 1958 - In the days of Slocum, Pidgeon and Gerbault, all small boat voyagers sailed without engines. By the middle of the 20th century, as engines became smaller, lighter and more reliable, sailing engineless became the rare mark of either a purist or an impoverished sailor. For Alan Martienssen, on Zebedee, the decision to sail without an engine began in the impoverished camp and has gone on, over one and a half circumnavigations, and as many decades, to be a matter of choice. Alan is a pragmatic man, a veterinary surgeon who cheerfully admits he has no mystical or spiritual inclinations. When, beset by domestic tribulation in his native England, he decided to get a boat and sail over the horizon - despite little knowledge and less experience - he simply chose to follow precedent. A friend had given him a copy of Annie Hill’s Voyaging on a Small Income and he decided to build an exact copy of Badger, stock it with the same type of food (dried beans etc) and head west. If it worked for Annie, he reasoned, it should work for him. For many people this might have been a Alan steering Zebedee recipe for disaster, or at least disappointment, but for the largely unflappable Alan it worked like a charm. For those unfamiliar with Badger, this vessel is a to the Gulf Islands, followed by the USA’s San Juan plywood-hulled, timber-sparred, junk-rigged, dory- Islands, before heading north to Desolation Sound, and hulled schooner, 34ft on deck.

It was used as type of Goniodoma, Heteraulacus and Yesevius, providing various sources of nomenclatural and taxonomic confusion. Particularly, several early authors emphasised that the organisms investigated by C.G. Ehrenberg and S.F.N.R. von Stein were not conspecific, but did not perform the necessary taxonomic conclusions. The holotype of P. acuminatum is an illustration dating back to 1834, which makes the determination of the species ambiguous. We collected, isolated, and cultivated Scrippsiella acuminata, comb.

  • Origin and Evolution of Dinoflagellates with a Diatom Endosymbiont

These dinoflagellates are known to possess an endosymbiotic alga of diatom origin. These are Durinskia baltica, Kryptoperidinium foliaceum, Peridinium quinquecorne, Durinskia sp., Gymnodinium quadrilobatum, Peridiniopsis rhomboids, Dinothrix paradoxa and a new coccoid di- noflagellate from Palau (P-18 strain). Although these eight species share a similar type of endosym- biont, morphologically they are so diverse that they may be classified as different entities, even to the ordinal level, using the current taxonomic criteria. To investigate the origin(s) and phylogenetic affinities of these dinoflagellates, the SSU rRNA and rbcL genes of D. baltica, K foliaceum, Durinskia sp., Peridiniopsis rhomboids, Dinothrix paradoxa and P-18 strain were sequenced and analysed. Phylogenetic trees based on nuclear encoded SSU rRNA gene strongly suggested that all these endosymbiotic dinoflagellates are monophyletic. The phylogenetic analyses based on the plas- tid encoded rbcL gene also revealed that all the endosymbiotic algae formed a unique clade within the diatom clade.

Introduction The late Bjarne Kroepelien was a great collector of books and other printed material from the Polynesia, and specifically the Tahiti. Kroepelien stayed at Tahiti for about a year in 1918 and 1919. He was married there with a Tahitian woman. He was also adopted as a son of the chief in Papenoo, Teriieroo, and given his name. During his stay at Tahiti, the island was hit by the Spanish flu and about forty percent of the inhabitants lost their lives, among them his dear wife. Kroepelien organised the health services of the victims and the burials of the deceased, he was afterwards decorated with the French Order of Merit. He went back to Norway, but his heart was lost to Tahiti, but he chose never to return to his lost paradise, and he never remarried.
